Mary Everhart is a professional blues, classic and southern rock musician (vocalist, guitarist and composer). She was born and raised in Tallahassee FL, and has been performing with various local and regional bands for the past 27 years. She has shared the stage with artists Lonnie Shields (Living Blues Magazine's winner, best blues album 1993), and Kingsnake recording artist, Charles Atkins, as well as other talented and influential musicians. She has also shared stages with Johnny Marshall ïThe Sauce Bossï, Bill Wharton, Chick Willis, Theodis Ealey, Chris Hicks and Blind Mississippi Morris. Additionally, she has performed for former Florida Governor, Ruben Askew, and former Tallahassee Mayor, Steve Meisburg.
Her earliest performances were for her family singing ïThe Star Spangled Bannerï at the age of three. In the third grade she raised eyebrows at ïShow and Tellï by bringing in a 45 rpm of ïGreen Onionsï by one of her musical influences, Booker T and the MGïs. The major influences on Maryïs music include Motown favorites, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Albert King, Bobby ïBlueï Bland and Etta James, Koko Taylor among a wide range of others. A review of her first album, ïMary Thornton Rottweiler Bluesï, in Blues Revue Magazine (Jan-Feb ï99) compared her voice to Koko Taylor and Lou Ann Barton. Singing in the church choir in her early years, Mary knew she wanted to also play guitar. She finally got her first guitar when she was twelve and taught herself to play by sitting for hours with a ïMel Bay Instructional Guideï book. She honed her skill by practicing and watching others play. It wasnït easy for a left-handed person to learn to play right-handed, but she persevered.
Mary has performed in Bars, Clubs, Festivals, Private Parties and Benefits throughout Florida, Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. Her release, ïDistant Starï is Mary's second recording and is on sale now on the Internet and features her ïeffortlessï vocal style on original material that comes straight from her heart, and her life.
